I have always loved cinquains, and I love teaching kids to write them. "Invented" by Adelaide Crapsey, they follow a syllabication rule: five lines, 2-4-6-8-2.
Here's one by Charles Waters from the book Dictionary for a Better World:
Courage
Sometimes
courage can be
getting up to face life's
stormy world when you'd rather hide
in bed.
And here are several more, written by Tristan Kilko:
Spin webs of silk
Walk on eight long, thin legs
I see an arachnid and scream
CREEPY
Fortnite
Exciting game
Hanging out with buddies
Jaxson's my arena partner
Sniper.
Fortnite
Easy trick shots
V-bucks for cosmetics
Skins, back blings, gliders, pickaxes,
Fun game.
